A500 worth saving?
I would say: No ! ![]() I bought my A2000 with an A2088 Bridgeboard in 1988, and later added an A2620 accelerator, an A2091 SCSI-Hostadapter, a 850 MB SCSI-HDD, a flickerfixer and some other things. Since approximately 2003 I also used WinUAE, and WinUAE on my PC was always much better and faster than my real old A2000 could ever be. The only reason to switch on my old A2000 again was to check out my programs like MathLibsUAE, developed under WinUAE, on a real Amiga with a real 68881 FPU. But then after 20 years my A2000 suddenly died with a loud bang when I switched it on. I never opened the case again to see what has happened inside, I just thought: "Rest in peace!" my good old A2000. |

Ok, that's your opinion. I think a plain A500 is outdated for long.
